Bacteria makes evolutionary leap

[HavocXphere]

A major evolutionary innovation has unfurled right in front of researchers' eyes. It's the first time evolution has been caught in the act of making such a rare and complex new trait.

Another nail in Creationism's coffin.

awesome!

I donnow why many people/factions kick against evolution. It happens every day, for example: white women were able to bear 6+ children 80-100 years ago. Today most white women can't safely bear more than 3 children. Heck, girls today barely have hips!

Can you not create that "link" the way you did? I can't access that link. Please

Thats cool and all but people will still believe whatever the hell they want to. No amount of evidence(or logic) will convince them otherwise.

Absolutely agree

 

[LazyLion]

Yes, but those bacteria are non-believers!

I wonder if I'll ever be around the day they prove evolution in every aspect.

That'll happen the day after the rapture!

I suppose to be able to prove every aspect you need to know every aspect, and were pretty far from that still. We know enough proofs of evolution to be able to build things like ARVs and do GE mods.

Great link.. was about to post it here, and noticed you beat me to it :>

I found out the other day that Mitochondria is a bacterium inside each of our cells. The organelle responsible for us being alive is not even originally part of us. Now this. Both bits of awesomeness.

Well if you think about it WE don't actually exist.
We're just a group of organized and co-depended but distinctly separate cells. Each alive in its own right.Which in turn is made up of other smaller things.

It is real interesting.

44000 generations is how many years? Wake up and catch a cold, maybe then that will lay the groundwork for another mutation in 400 000+ years.
The Shiite people will believe boggles the mind.

I have no idea what you just said

Thats the point!
